CHFT set up the Charitable Fund in 1997. Funds donated to the Fund will be used to assist members and to expand CHFT's educational programs. The fund has three major projects. The Training and Employment Program The Training and Employment Program provides computer and lifeskills training to people on social assistance. More than 150 employers have hired our graduates. The Here to Stay Fund The Here to Stay Fund assists co-op members in one month of arrears. Members receive free credit counselling and interest free loans. Strong Communities The Co-operative Housing Federation of Toronto was instrumental in enabling Alexander Park to make the conversion from a public housing project to a co-op community and continues to provide leadership and assistance. It is now facilitating a campaign to use the experiences gained in Alexandra Park/Atkinson Co-op to create a model for transition in other public housing projects.
